Josh Addo-Carr's second drug test comes back negative
Josh Addo-Carr's second drug test has returned a negative result, according to 9 News Australia, following a positive roadside test in September.

Nine's accompanying description says Addo-Carr had been facing a possible twelve-week NRL suspension and that the Eels were reportedly considering terminating his contract. The club, based in western Sydney, competes in Australia's National Rugby League.
